Answer:

the world has been transformed. The COVID pandemic is an unprecedented and growing global crisis with devastating health, economic and social impact in every country. It is plunging the world economy into a recession of historic dimensions.

As of 1 April 2020, the ILO’s new global estimates indicate that working hours will decline by 6.7 per cent in the second quarter of 2020 –equivalent to 195 million full-time jobs lost1. It is important to note that the final tally of annual job losses this year will depend on the evolution of the pandemic and the measured taken by governments and the private sector, to mitigate its impact.

I welcome the IOE’s continued engagement in forging economic processes that uphold human rights, and which can assist to shape effective responses to the pandemic – both now; and in coming months, as the virus continues circling around the world.

Many, if not most businesses face the challenges of massive shifts in demand, supply chains, transportation and mobility and worker protection – to name just some of the major topics before you.

Workers, too, are facing shocks – and so are consumers. The fear of becoming infected. The prospect of losing livelihoods. These and other severe vulnerabilities are being exacerbated by inadequate social protection coverage, which means that millions of people around the world are unable to access adequate medical care, or any social benefits.

I understand that business leaders have a wealth of pressing concerns, yet I would like to put workers, and other ordinary people, at the core of your discussions today. The health of every business depends on both workers', and consumers', well-being. And we need clear thinking and responsible solidarity, to ensure that the least possible damage is done, throughout this crisis, to everyone.

Your businesses are facing intense and immediate challenges, yet you also must look ahead.

The world will be living with this virus for months and years, as the struggle to keep it in check continues. You, but also your workers, your consumers and your communities will be adapting to these changes. And it is important that this community of mutual interests be at the core of the decisions you make.

This commitment to human rights is the way to do good business and make more effective assessments of the way ahead.
